  The RF power conditioning of the photocathode RF gun with four holes at the side of the full cell named as 'Pohang gun' is in progress. The first goal of the conditioning is the operation of the gun with RF pulse width of 1.5 μm, repetition rate of 30 Hz, field gradient at the cathode of 130 MV/m. We operated the RF gun successfully with the conditions within last few months. It was first operational experience with such conditions in PAL. Now we have a plan to operate RF gun with higher repetition rate up to 60 Hz.

  Final goal of this study is the development of single cell radio-frequency (RF) electron gun which is optimized to the femotosecond electron diffraction. This study will open new technology basis for the laboratory research in the femto-second (fs) chemistry at the university. RF electron gun will be fabricated with single cell which will reduce the cost and effort. We will also conduct a simulation study to find an optimized operation condition of the RF gun to provide the best electron beam to the femtosecond electron diffraction experimentalist. In this presentation, we will show the status of the RF gun development. The results with the simulation code PARMELA will be presented to find the optimal operation condition of the single cell RF gun for FED.
